They won’t join the conflict and cause a nuclear holocaust, that doesn’t mean they’re not materially supporting Iran

Indeed, isn’t China the source of Iran’s missiles and drones? So I’m pretty sure they’re helping how they can without getting directly involved.

Iran has domestic missile and drone production, quite a lot of it in fact.

Oh I’m sure, but I thought they were buying from China too.

Yes, that’s correct, they are buying from China as well. Just wanted to point out that they aren’t entirely dependent on China for production, which would limit them as the war goes on.

All good, I probably should have said China is ‘a’ source of missiles and drones for Iran, but doing that now would render this whole thread redundant and people have to see what real leftist infighting looks like 😜
